In this powerful continuation of Raising Strength, my mother and I dive deeper into the raw, painful, and defining moments of our past. We open up about the morning my father attempted suicide in front of us, the devastating fire that changed everything, and the emotional weight of navigating his mental health struggles as a family.
This episode is not just about the trauma; we also explore the aftermath, the resilience it took to keep going, and how my mother found the strength to protect, support, and rebuild. She shares her reflections on what she wished she had known, how she coped with the unimaginable, and the lessons she hopes can help others facing similar battles.
If you or someone you love has ever faced mental health challenges, grief, or the weight of trying to hold everything together, this conversation is for you. It’s a story of survival, strength, and the power of never giving up; no matter how dark things may seem.
